"Terrible. Ended up spending another $1,600 last minute to stay elsewhere. This is not an air bnb or anything similar. It’s is one child size bedroom in a rude old lady’s house. It is intentional false advertising. The “shared bathroom” clause is supposed to have you assume you will be sharing the place with the elderly woman that lives there and whatever guests she has in another room. She called us that day and corrected our grammar and was very rude. Upon arrival, we walked past a living area...

"The condo was great! It was so nice and quiet, and we were able to relax like we wanted. I loved going out on the deck every morning with my iced coffee and a book and watch and listen to the waves come in. The condo was very close to the small public beach in Cedar Key, so we were able to go shelling two of the mornings. We had everything we needed for our 4 day stay. We would definitely recommend this unit for a relaxing and laid back vacay!"
